What’s special about this listing

This 1991 Mercedes-Benz began life as a Euro-spec 300CE and was modified by Mosselman Turbo Systems of Belgium. Designated the “300CR Silver Arrow Bi-Turbo,” the car was imported from Japan earlier this year by the selling dealer and features widened bodywork finished in Brilliant Silver over a black interior equipped with buffalo leather Recaro A8 seats.

The 3.0-liter inline-six has been fitted with twin Garrett T25 turbochargers and is paired with a dogleg five-speed manual transmission, and additional features include a carbon fiber front lip and rear spoiler, NACA-style air ducts, air conditioning, and aftermarket alloy wheels.

Work in October 2020 reportedly included overhauling the engine with a rebuilt cylinder head and replacement head gasket, rod bearings, piston rings, valves, guides, and seals. This 300CR Silver Arrow is now being offered by the selling dealer with clear title, a tool kit, Mosselman promotional material, Sabelt four-point harnesses, Mercedes-Benz owner’s manuals, service records beginning in April 2007, magazines featuring the vehicle.

The body is finished in Brilliant Silver and features a front bumper and fenders sourced from a 500E, along with widened rear fender flares and NACA-style intake ducts mounted ahead of the rear wheels. Additional equipment includes a locking fuel cap, a carbon fiber front lip, carbon fiber Mosselman-branded rear spoiler, and HID headlights.

The 18” metallic gray-finished alloy wheels are fitted with carbon fiber center caps and wear Kumho Ecsta LE Sport tires that are sized 235/40. The car rides on lowering springs paired with Bilstein dampers as well as uprated front and rear sway bars.

The cabin features black buffalo leather Recaro A8 seats with silver body color-painted composite backs, along with matching rear seats, door panels, and a suede headliner. Checkered blue and black Karo mats line the footwells, and carbon fiber trim has been fitted in place of the factory wood veneers. Amenities include air conditioning, an aluminum dead pedal and shift knob, a leather shift boot, a GPS unit hardwired to the factory speakers, and mounting points for racing harnesses. Two sets of Sabelt four-point harnesses will accompany the vehicle.

A leather-wrapped MOMO steering wheel with red stitching frames a Mosselman-branded 320-km/h speedometer, an 8k-rpm tachometer with an inset analog clock, and a combination gauge for coolant temperature, oil pressure, and fuel level. A digital display for boost pressure and exhaust temperature is mounted to a flexible armature affixed to the center console. The six-digit mechanical odometer shows just under 41k kilometers (~24k miles).

The 3.0-liter 24-valve inline-six has been modified by Mosselman with twin Garrett T25 turbochargers that feature water-cooled bearing housings and integral wastegates, along with a custom top-mount intercooler, and a Mosselman-branded exhaust manifold. The selling dealer reports that the engine was overhauled in October 2020 with a rebuilt cylinder head and a replacement head gasket, rod bearings, valves, guides, seals, piston rings, fuel injectors, valve cover gasket, and ignition components
